Had the link to this thread in favorites, noticed I hadnt even commented on it!!! ooops Sorry! I love working with plarn and using the lids is a fantastic idea!! You mentioned "harn" (hosiery), I have lots saved to use for something, I would cut in loops in loop together. Anyway, my question is, it doesnt "run" when cut ?

To make hosiery yarn, I would cut them in one strand using a spiral pattern. Your loops would be too small even when stretched. Re the runs, they wouldn't show when crocheted. I never thought of using harn and I seldom wear pantyhose anymore, but it seems like a good idea to use up your pantyhose with rips in them.
